Radio Preservation has always been at the core of Radio Archives. This exciting series is derived from our massive collection of thirty thousand radio shows from 16" transcription discs and fifty thousand shows from low generation reels.

This 20 hour collection includes shows from the classic days of Radio. You'll find rare and obscure as well as mainstream radio shows from the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s in the Radio Archives Treasures sets.

These shows have all been restored with state-of-the-art CEDAR technology - the audio processing system used by major recording companies to restore older recordings. We expect the shows to be the best sounding copies available anywhere.

Radio Archives Treasures are available as MP3 digital downloads or Audio CDs, restored to sparkling digital quality.

Early radio shows from 1934 including The Hour of Smiles with Fred Allen is reason enough to purchase this set but it also includes the last performance of the noted NBC Conductor, Arturo Toscanini. Such rare long forgotten performances are here, many not having been heard since their original broadcast. Special surprises await you in Volume 19. I can't recommend this Volume 19 too highly! Amazing sound quality, especially for the early shows of radio by the Radio Archives staff.
